Change of Address Card

It's a lot less empty these days. In fact there's a dining room table there now. Although, the old house isn't completely empty yet and not all the boxes are unpacked we're making progress. I keep telling myself that's it's only been a week. It has only been a week, but in less than 48 hours we're having company for Easter. I tell myself the people who love me won't care if my house isn't immaculate or that the painting isn't finished. I calm myself with the thought and then I walk into my bedroom, Oy!

Six of the seven rooms are either done or "pretty close" Tonight we're having friends over to dye eggs. I have my priorities in order and a semi-realistic grip on my deteriorating physical state. The weekend is here. Easter will be here before we know it. I think we all need this event. It's a ceremony to mark a new begining for us. It's a chance to test drive what future events will be like in this house and how our friends feel about our new place. Above all it means we did it. We survived, we worked together and we'll get through the end of this intact.

  1. Beautiful change of addy card.Great pic, and with words. framable.Makes a bold statement. A fresh begining. As for the move, "it takes a village" You were blessed with friends who care and could help.Parents here and there, helping out.Thats what friends and family are for. The kids seem happy, throughout the move. Thats a good sign. Theres still work to be done, but theres time.
